Overview
The new microATX, 1stMainboardR supports a full range of IntelR CeleronR D and
PentiumR 4 processors. The leading edge VIAR PM800Pro/ 8237RPlus chipset was
designed for coworking with CeleronR D and PentiumR 4 based on the VRM 10.0
spec and 533/800 MHz. Two DDRII 400/533 SDRAM sockets allow for up to 2 GB
memory capacity. Support for the Ultra DMA / 133 protocol and its high-speed
interface further ensures that data transfer speeds are improved, especially for long
sequential transfers required by audio / visual applications.
The board features onboard audio and LAN function; also, the serial ATA feature
replaces the standard parallel ATA physical storage interface and allows future
enhancements to the computing platform. It completely software compatible with
parallel ATA, requiring no modification to your operating system. For more detail,
please read the help file in the 1st Utilities CD.
The 1stMainboard comes with a versatile range of I / O features such as 1 COM port
and 1 CRT port, 1 parallel port, 1 LAN, 2 optional IEEE 1394, 1 PS / 2 mouse and
keyboard connector, 8 USB 2.0 ports, 1 media connector (front audio, Line-in,
Line-out and Mic-in). In addition, the board is equipped with 2 dual channel
enhanced PCI bus master IDE connectors. Ample expansion is available through
1AGP (8X) and 3 PCI slots to meet the requirement for enjoying the P4 CPU benefits
in internet applications, video/3D graphics performance, and so forth.
Other key features are Remote On/Off, Auto Power Failure Recovery, integrated
temperature monitoring and system fan control. Included also is 1st Utilities CD with
enhanced drivers and a few bundled software solutions.

Installation Procedures
The mainboard has several user-adjustable jumpers that allow you to configure the
system to suit your requirements. This chapter contains information on the various
jumper settings on your mainboard.
To set up your computer, you must complete the following steps:
Step 1 - Set system jumpers.
Step 2 - Install memory modules.
Step 3 - Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU).
Step 4 - Install expansion cards.
Step 5 - Connect ribbon cables, cabinet wires and power supply.
Step 6 - Set up BIOS software.
Step 7 - Install supporting software tools.
WARNING: Excessive torque may damage the mainboard. When using
an electric screwdriver on the mainboard, make sure that the torque is
set to the allowable range of 5.0 ~ 8.0kg/cm.
Mainboard components contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips.
To prevent static electricity from harming any of the sensitive components,
you should follow the following precautions whenever working on the
computer:
1. Unplug the computer when working on the inside.
2. Hold components by the edges and try not to touch the IC chips, leads or
circuitry.
3. Wear an anti-static wrist strap.
4. Place components on a grounded anti-static pad or on the bag
that came with the component whenever the components are
separated from the system.

1.) Set System Jumpers
Jumpers are used to select the operation modes for your system. Some
jumpers on the board have three metal pins with each pin representing a
different function. A 1 is written besides pin 1 on jumpers with three pins. To
set a jumper, a black cap containing metal contacts is placed over the
jumper pin(s) according to the required configuration. A jumper is said to be
shorted when the black cap has been placed on one or two of its pins.
Clear CMOS
The CMOS RAM is powered by the onboard button cell battery.
To clear the RTC data:
(1) Turn off your computer;
(2) Open the system case and disconnect the ATX power cable;
(3) Place the jumper cap onto the pinpair 2-3 for at least 6 seconds
to enable CMOS clearance;
(4) Place the jumper cap onto the pinpair 1-2 to disable the effect of
CMOS clearance;
(5) Connect the ATX power cable and close the system case;
(6) Turn on your computer until CMOS checksum error appears;
(7) Hold down the Delete key as it boots;
(8) Enter the BIOS Setup to re-enter user preferences.

2). Install Memory Modules
3). Install the CPU
The mainboard has built-in Switching Voltage
Regulator to support CPU Vcore auto-detection.
That is, It has the ability to detect and recognize
the CPU voltage, clock, ratio and enables users
to set up the CPU frequency from the BIOS
Setup Screen. Users can adjust the frequency
through Frequency / Voltage Control of the
BIOS Setup Screen.
The procedures below shows you how to install
your CPU and its fan and heatsink. First of all, locate the CPU socket on this
mainboard.
2. Install DDRII DIMM straight
down into the socket 1 using both
hands, then socket 2.
1. Locate DDRII DIMM sockets on
the mainboard.
3. The clip on both ends of the
socket will close up to hold the
DDRII DIMM in place when the
DDRII DIMM reaches the socket
bottom.

Affix the CPU by pressing the lever
downward and locking it beside the socket.
Apply some thermal materials, such as
paste or tape, on the CPU top; and install a
fan with heatsink that approved by CPU
manufacturer to avoid CPU damage. For
detail information, please refer to the CPU
manufacturer website.
3. Place the fan with heatsink on the CPU
top and press down two plastic clips to hook
up with the holes on the retention module
1. Swing the lever upward to 90 degree.
2. Install the CPU and make sure the pin 1
orientation by aligning the socket corner
marking with the socket corner closest to
the lever tip.
Do not insert the CPU by force. Make sure
the processor is fully inserted into the
socket on all sides.
4. Press down the white bar on each clip to
fasten the fan set on the retention module.

Connect ATX Power
The 24-hole power plug (top right) is connected to the ATX
power 24-pin pinheaders. The 4-hole 12V power plug (bottom
right) is inserted in the ATX_12V power connector.
The plug from the power supply will only insert in one
orientation because of the different hole sizes. Find the proper
orientation and push down firmly making sure that the pins are
aligned.

ATX_12V
NOTE:
1. Insert the CPU (with fansink and retention module) on |socket.
2. Connect the 4-pin plug of the power supply
3. Connect the 24-pin plug of the power supply.
To remove the processor, please do it in reverse order.

4). Install Expansion Cards
This section describes how to connect an expansion card to one of your system
expansion slots.
Expansion cards are printed circuit boards that, when connected to the mainboard,
increase the capabilities of your system.
For example, expansion cards can provide video and sound capabilities. This
mainboard features one AGP and three PCI bus expansion slots.
1. Select an available expansion slot.
2. Remove the corresponding slot cover from the computer chassis. Unscrew the
mounting screw that secures the slot cover and pull the slot cover out from the
computer chassis. Keep the slot cover mounting screw nearby.
CAUTION:
1.Make sure to unplug the power supply when adding or removing
expansion cards or other system components. Failure to do so may
cause severe damage to both the mainboard and expansion cards.
2. Always observe static electricity precautions.
3. Please read Handling Precautions at the beginning of this manual.

3. Push the card firmly into the slot. Push down on
one end of the expansion card, then the other.
Use this rocking motion until the card is firmly
seated inside the expansion slot. Secure the
card with the screw that was removed in Step2.
5). Connect Devices
Floppy Diskette Drive Connector
This connector provides the connection with
your floppy disk drive.
Insert the floppy ribbon cable (below) onto the
floppy connector.
The colored stripe (indicated by the arrow head, right) of the ribbon cable must be
the same side with the Pin 1.
